Can the tie-breaking effect of hills be stacked?We still discuss this situation... - no answer yet...I wonder why they didn't answer this one? Was it posed along with the others and they just elected to ignore it?

The "new" rule is from the CundCo Shop. I've sent my reply to HiG... Some weeks ago Georg Wild (HiG) told me that he also prefers the original version of the rule which came out together with the jubilee edition.I'm confused on this one kettlefish. Aren't these answers coming from HiG? But you are saying you personally go with the HiG version. It seems redundant.obervet asked HiG if that is true that there are a new version of the festival - and that is true.But this new version is from CundCo and not from HiG...Perhaps both rules should be put into the CAR...I can't talk about it again with Georg Wild... And I don't get an answer by email. Perhaps they HiG, CundCo, Klaus-Juergen Wrede, Christof Tisch will talk together first. Next week they are all together - the big meeting - all for the world of Carcassonne...

@kettlefish - that is why I use the keyword "blue dog" on posts with new questions - so they can be queried at a later date. It's a throw-back to the early days.
Gonna have to say that I think HiG's ruling is dumb and illogical. If majority rules in general, then it rules when specific. The person with more meeples AND more Hills wins. That may be a house rule but it is the only logical rule and one that I figure most people will play with.
I told to Georg Wild (HiG) that we fans would like to have the fight for the mayority of the hills, but he doesn't like the fight. I had a hard discussion with him, but he still stands to his clarification...
The opinion of HiG is follows - the answer:Is there a tie - the player wins the tie if he has also one ore more followers on the hills. It doesn't matter the mayority of the hills - in this example RED and BLUE wins the tie and both get all the points.

I'm not big on house rules, but I agree with you guys on this one. Hills are supposed to be a tie-breaker, so it should not be so easy to neutralize the tie-breaker.
